With "From Potter's Field" Patricia Cornwall has done it again. She is definitely one of my favourite authors of crime fiction. In this novel her main character Dr. Kay Scarpetta once again faces the terrible deeds of Temple Gault, a mass murderer whom...
Pros: well-written, great character and plot development, keeps you in until the end Cons: A little gruesome at times
This book was great. I am an avid Agatha Christie fan, and I was looking for a new detective writer to bring me into the 21st century. A friend of mine suggested this book, and all I can say is that I loved it. It is 369 pages, and I read it in a little...
Pros: A real thriller. Cons: If you didn't read Cruel and Unusual first, you don't know who Temple is.

Pros: Character development, Plot Cons: Sometimes the information about corpses gets too graphic.
I've been a fan of Patricia Cornwell for a very short time. But I've been trying to make up for that! I have been lucky enough to find several older hardbacks of her's on the discount rack at prices cheaper than the paperbacks.
Pros: Blair Brown is an excellent voice for Kay Scarpetta Cons: Abridged
